UFO in Lynn’s Wootton Road
A LYNN News reader and his wife have been perplexed by a UFO they saw last night (Monday).
Mike Smith emailed: “Both me and my wife saw an orange/red light last night moving along Wootton Road from the town centre towards Castle Rising.
“The light was quite high but well below cloud level. At first it looked like a Chinese lantern but after looking at it for a few seconds it was obvious it wasn’t.
“It also wasn’t a helicopter or light aircraft because it was totally silent and moving far too quickly.
“It was very bright and looked a bit like a meteor, but this was totally under control and flying on a level course.
“We watched it for a minute or so until it disappeared.
“Anyone else see it? Or what was it?”, he asks.

Friday, August 13, 2010 at 10:05 PMIt can only be aliens. Given the careful and detailed analysis of the facts. 3 Seconds to eliminate the Chinese lantern theory ( because people have been taken in by that one before) and it definitely wasn't an aeroplane or helicopter. That would just ruin a good story. But seriously. I saw this too. On closer inspection, I noticed that the object had a row of little round windows across it, each containing the shadow of a little man with eyes on stalks. I didn't get a good look though, as I was too busy dodging the laser fire.

Thursday, August 12, 2010 at 07:42 PMMy friend and I saw a very similar site the night of July 3rd 2010. The light was a bright orange cylinder, flying about the same path height as a single engineer plane. It was totally silent, moving in a straight path from west to east. We watched it about 3 minutes before it disappeared behind trees.

Thursday, August 12, 2010 at 05:07 PMLike most "UFO" sightings this one has quite a simple and mundane explanation. What was seen was simply an exploratory landing ship from a much larger alien fleet. They are often seen in these areas and mistaken for UFOs whilst they search for people to intorgate via rectal probing. This process is an essential inteligence gathering step that must be carried out before our new alien overlords invade There is no sinister explanation Its as simple as that

Wednesday, August 11, 2010 at 11:47 PMI live in New Hampshire, USA. It was an exceptionally clear night last night. Me, and three other friends were the last up at a party on a lake. Everyone else sleeping inside, we sat on my friends pontoon boat to take in the sky. Then we noticed some things that were very strange. First just one very bright light we assumed as a bright star, but after a bit we noticed the white orb was moving. Meshed in with what I am sure were meteors from the Perseid shower, were some things I'm not sure were "normal." One particular shooting star, out of the 30 we perceived, sticks in my mind. Two bright streaks running parallel to eachother, prominently in our field of vision. I saw a few red and green flashing craft moving silently through the sky, bouncing around from up and down to left and right. These were too fast to be planes. I noticed a V of red and green lights flashing and alternating colors in unison, that appeared to make up one giant craft, much larger than the smaller craft buzzing around. Also suspicious, most of the shooting stars were coming from the general direction of the set of lights in a V. When the sun began to come up and the sky turn blue, the lights remained on until finally, i dozed off, woke up and found that there were clouds in the same places i though I saw some various crafts. Lastly, the bright white light which had been steady and constant since it was first pointed out. All of the sudden, I noticed it began to fade (apparently moving away) and simultaneously moving to the right from my perspective (sunrise was about 45 degrees to the left of center of line of vision). Weird stuff is going down.

Wednesday, August 11, 2010 at 10:31 PMI too saw this strange light in the sky as I was coming down knights hill close to the lay-by, It seemed to curve and then disappeared somewhere in the woods. My friend also saw it and called me soon after to ask if I had seen it also. Certainly very odd indeed!
